ASUS unveils ROG GX1000, touts it as "the first mouse for hardcore gamers"

ASUS has just unveiled its first "hardcore" gaming mouse, the Republic of Gamers GX1000. The new mouse features an aluminum top plate and ergonomic styling that is tuned to lessen hand fatigue.

The ROG GX1000 is capable of an 8200dpi resolution thanks to precision laser optics. The mouse buttons can be individually programmed and remapped according to game genera. Users can also adjust the mouse weight by removing or installing included weights.

To finish things off, the GX1000 features custom lighting in four colors to ensure even the most picky gamer can match their style. In addition, the custom lighting can be set to different presets to indicate which profile the mouse is on. ASUS says that the mouse is available now and retails at an MSRP of $100.
